Energy infrastructures are changing, and in the automotive
industry, the electrification of vehicles is expected to create
significant charging demands on the grid, while expanding the
opportunity for energy storage through vehicle-to-grid (V2G) power
applications. Variable renewable energy (VRE) and distributed
energy resources (DERs) in the form of solar, wind and battery
storage are the dominant theme in global grid modernization
initiatives to help meet increased demand. The evolution and
increased complexity of the grid leads to test challenges within
EV/EVSE charging and grid-edge applications.
Keysight’s SL1200A series handles 3-phase AC test needs up to
1,200 voltage alternating current (VAC), from 30 kVA to 630 kVA,
without the need for a transformer. Two voltage ranges are
available. The 600 VAC is ideal for low voltage inverter test, as
well as EV and EVSE charging test applications. The 1,200 VAC
allows for high voltage ride through (HVRT) testing without the
need for a large, complex test setup.
“Keysight’s new SL1200A series extends Keysight’s EV and EVSE
charging and grid-edge test portfolio,” said Thomas Goetzl, vice
president and general manager of Keysight’s Automotive and Energy
Solutions business unit. “Along with the company’s SL1040A and
SL1047A Scienlab Charging Discovery System, it provides a complete
solution that enables our customers to create real-world charging
scenarios with confidence in the ability to meet global
standards.”
Keysight’s SL1200A series delivers the following key customer
benefits:
- High-power, 3-phase AC and DC power source integrates with
EV/EVSE charging and inverter test solutions for complete test of
devices.
- DC output (Option SDC) enables high-power DC charging test, up
to 1,000 V DC and 120 kW; eliminating the need and expense for
extra equipment.
- 100% regenerative (bidirectional) power solution with > 85%
efficiency to reduce the cost of test with highly integrated
capabilities.
- Achieve 1200 V line-to-line (L-L) at full specifications
without extra equipment to reduce cost, increase performance and
save space.
